Specification forming of Letters Patent No. 57,060, dated August 7,1866.

'To allwhom it may concern.- `Be it knwn that I, EsEKBUssEY, of `the`city of Troy, county of Rensselaer, and `State 3. -of New York, haveinvented certain newand useful Improvements in Water `Reservoirs or``Boilers for Cooking-Stoves,\ and in combination therewith 5" and Iherebydeclare that the following is a clear, full,`and exact descrip,-tion of thesame, reference ibeingherebyhad to the accompanying drawingsand to the leta part of this specification.` n i Like letters representand refer to like or ters of reference marked thereon, and making`correspondin g parts ofthe said invention and improvements. Y, i

` Figure l `is a side elevation. Fig. `2 represents apartial` centrallongitudinal sectional n elevation. Fig.3 represents a perspective viewof a detached water reservoiror boiler `of a cooking-stove, illustrativeof my aforesaid- 'named invention and improvements, and `more fullydescribed hereinafter. Figs. 4, 5, 6, and 7 are central longitudinalsectional elevations,

of four other stoves, illustrating my aforesaidnamedinvention andimprovements, similar parts beingmarked by like letters in each and allof the iigures, andthe arrows therein being indicative of the courses inwhich the gases of combustion pass through the stove, and also showingthe combination ofthe said water reservoir or boiler, more fullydescribed `hereinafter, with a cooking-stove, and which combin ation ofsaid reservoir or boiler with a cooking-stove may also be in the mannersubstan tially as hereinafter described and set forth.

The nature of my invention and improvements consists in the employmentof a water reservoir or boiler constructed of cast-iron and containingupon the insidethereof an enamel substance over and upon the entiresurface of such inside part of said reservoir or boiler in the mannerand for the purposes substantially as herein described and set forth,and the combinatien of such reservoir or boiler with a `cookingstove inthe manner substantially as shownfin the accompanying drawings.

In carrying my said improvements into operation, Icover the entire innersurfaces, b, of the cast-ironbody A, Figs. 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, of thereservoir or boiler with and by anenamel substanceby any suitable meansand in any suitable manner. The said enameling is put upon such innersurfaces of said boiler or reservoir in `the usual way, manner, orprocess of putting enameling upon castor other `iron for other anddiiferentpurposes. The said enamel is representedat b, Figs. 2, 3,5, 6,and 7, and it may beof any suitable thickness which will answer thepurposes required, while the said boiler or reservoir A may be` of any`size or` shape which may be required.

The said water reservoir or boiler A, constructed of cast-iron andenameled upon the entire inner surfaces of the same, in themannersubstantially as aforesaid, I combine with a cookingstove, so thatitmay form any suitable part or portion of the casing of the tire flueor fines, as indicated by examples inFi gs.

5 an`d6`,o`r`such combination may bemade substantially as indicated byexamples in Figsfl,

2, Land 7.

Dis a tire-due or fire-fines, as the case may be, by and through whichthe heatedair or escaping products of combustion are brought against andinto contact with'all `that part or portion of such water or otherreservoir or boiler A immediately connected therewith and exposedthereto, in the manner substantially as shown and represented in theaccompanying drawings, and herein described and set forth. In `thedrawings, I is a hinged `cover or lid upon and attached to the open topof the said reservoir A, or of the extended and open top By my saidinvention a very durable reservoir or boiler is produced and combined`with a cookingstove in such manner that, while costing but a littlemore than if the same were made of cast-iron alone and of equal weight,strength, and capacity, it has the inner surface thereof much lessliable to `become rusty or dirty by the oxidizingaction thereon of thewater, steam, or air in the said reservoir or boiler, and such innersurface so enameledis very much less liable to become corroded by" theoxidizing action of the Water or steam or air in the said reservoir orboiler, and thus and thereby the said boiler or reservoir will always bein good condition for ready and satisfactory use, and it will endure useand Wear to a much greater length of time than if the' same weremadeonly ot' cast-iron or in the ordinary way of making reservoirs orboilers for cooking-stoves.

By my said invention and improvements a combined cooking-stove andhot-Water reservoir or boiler is produced which will cost much less tomanufacture than if the said reservoir or boiler Were made of zinc,brass, copper, or an alloy of zinc and tin, or tin and copper, and

it would be much less liable to become oXi` 'dized or rusted on itsinner surface by the Water, steam, or air therein; and a permanent waterreservoir or boiler is combined with a cooking-stove in which Water orother material is heated more directly and to a greater degree, as Wellas more economically', than would be the case in a cooking-stove havinga reservoir or boiler composed of cast-iron enameled upon its innersurfaces and arranged or placed upon the stove with a metal plate orcasing between the outer surface of the said reservoir or boiler and thedame or heated and escaping products of combustion in the stove, so thatsuch flame or escaping products of combustion could not come in directcontact with the outer surface of the said boiler or reservoirconstructed of cast-iron and covered upon its inner surfaces by anenamel in the manner and for the purposes substantially as hereinbeforede-v scribed and set forth. v

A reservoir or boiler for cooking-stoves con structed and combinedtherewith in the manner aforesaid may contain upon its outer surfacesanalloy of zinc and tin, or it may be coated over and upon by anyothersuitablc ma-V terial, if deemed best so to do, in order that thesame may be made more permanent and durable for use and Wear whencombined with a cooking-stove in the manner substan- -tially asrepresented in the accompanying drawings, and herein described and setforth.

Having thus described the nature, construction, and the manner ofcombining my said improvements With a cooking-stove, What I claim, anddesire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

The reservoir, boiler, or tank A, constructed entirely of cast-iron orother cast metal, and covered or coated upon the inner surfaces thereofwith or by an enamel, b, When applied to and combined withcooking-stoves in the manner substantially as and for the purposesherein described and set forth.

ln testimony whereof I have on this 17th day of July, A. D. 1866,hereunto set my hand.e
